Denial is a defensive coping mechanism for not facing up to the reality of nicotine drug addiction.
There are over 40 chemicals found in cigarette smoke that are known carcinogens - that's 40 good reasons to give up smoking now!
Tobacco smoke is more
dangerous to health than nicotine.
Long-term inhalation of tobacco smoke exposes every
cell of your body to powerful chemicals that can cause cancer
and cell mutations, and that ultimately cause tobacco-related illnesses.
Tobacco smoke from cigarettes, cigars and pipes contains over 4,000 chemical compounds and breathable, suspended particles. Some of the chemicals present in tobacco smoke have been proven to cause cancer and increase the risk of birth defects.
These include: ammonia, arsenic, benzene, cadmium, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, lead, mercury, naphthalene, urethane and a variety of nitrosamines (potent human carcinogens). Formaldehyde, ammonia, urethane, and naphthalene are contained in household products with labels telling you to avoid inhaling them.
There are also radioactive chemicals in tobacco smoke, like polonium-210.
So far, over 40 chemicals have been found in tobacco smoke that
are known human carcinogens. This means that these chemicals
have been proven to cause cancer not only in laboratory animals,
but also in people.
These chemicals make smoking too high a risk.
So, begin a new life… Quit Now!
